The Key to
Your Success |
|
The Right Seed |
|
Welcome to
the 2009-2010 Wensman Website Our new website contains
essential information about our company. I appreciate your
time as you page through details about the people, products
and programs that comprise the framework of Wensman Seed.
When Wensman Seed was established in 1997, we understood the
challenges that faced us. We couldn’t be just another company
selling seed. Our business model had to be sustainable. We
had to provide growers with value. We had to do it right the
first time. Wensman Seed got started on a fairly simple
premise – we had to provide each grower with the best seed for
their fields. Providing “the right seed” worked in the
beginning and continues to work today.
In those early years, Wensman recognized the advantage of Bt
echnology. We quickly determined that Bt corn borer
protection was the right seed for our growers. With our
products in their fields, Wensman growers enjoyed tremendous
yields when corn borer devastated non-Bt crops. We proved our
worth those seasons. Bt corn was indeed “the right seed.”
Staying on the forefront of seed technology and genetic advances
has allowed Wensman to continue a leadership position in the
industry. Wensman growers have seen continual product
advancements through the years:

Through out the years,
Wensman has always paired the latest wonders of seed
technology with the best germplasm available. Our corn and
soybean products are “hand picked” by our product management
team. Hands-on genetic assessment through comprehensive
research and hundreds of local plots has enabled Wensman to
offer a product line-up unrivaled in our sales geography.
With research stations at Kenyon MN and Morris MN, our corn
breeders are selecting out the best corn products for our
sales geography. Their efforts to develop proprietary
germplasm, sets Wensman apart now and going forward in the
future.
I am very excited about what lies ahead. We are launching
Genuity™ Roundup Ready 2 Yield™ soybeans this year. GENRR2Y
represents a major step up in soybean yield. I am proud that
Wensman is again out front with this major product
improvement. And there are many more new traits being
developed. The package of eight genes in SmartStax™ corn
should be here soon. Wensman intends to bring that exciting
advancement to your fields as soon as it is approved.
Our new Acceleron™ seed treatment offers yet another very
positive move for both our corn and soybean line-up.
Acceleron™, an external seed coat technology, is formulated
with the best components available. The multiple modes of
action in Acceleron™ compliment the trait protections offered
by internal genetic modifications. By defending against
weeds, pests and disease both inside and outside the seed, the
yield potential of our world-class germplasm is allowed to
express itself in bigger yields. Believe me, the right seed
for your fields will have Acceleron™ seed treatment.
Bringing all of this together is the role of our people. I
truly believe that Wensman has the best people in the
business. From the Production Team that grows, conditions,
packages and delivers the seed to the Customer Service Center
Team that coordinates our operational activities to the Sales
Team that provides expert product knowledge -Wensman is simply
the best.
Our teams are trained regularly in all facets of our
business and to improve their careers. Knowledge about our
products is essential. Time management improves customer
service. Better communication skills make everyone’s life
easier. We will always be learning how to do a better job for
you.
My goal today remains the same as it did at the beginning:
Our success is measured
by your confidence. Thank you for making Wensman The Right
Seed for Your Fields™.
